ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
ON THIS MODEL, AS WELL AS OTHERS WITHIN A CLOSE DATE RANGE, THE FORWARD CONTROL MODULE(FCM) SHUTS OFF THE HEADLIGHTS IF IT RECOGNIZES ANY DISRUPTION IN CURRENT OR GROUND. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME ABOUT 4 TIMES IN THE LAST YEAR AND CAUSES A SAFETY CONCERN AS THE ONLY THING I CAN DO IS TURN ON MY BRIGHTS, WHICH IN TURN BLINDS OTHER DRIVERS. THE MODULE IS LOCATED OUTBOARD OF THE FUSE BOX, LOCATED ABOVE DRIVER SIDE WHEEL WELL IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. PRICE IS USUALLY AROUND $400 FOR PART, THEN I HAVE TO TAKE IT TO SOMEBODY TO HAVE IT KEYED TO MY COMPUTER FOR ANOTHER $100-200. THERE IS NO VARIABLE AS TO WHEN IT HAPPENS, SOMETIMES WHILE IN MOTION, SOMETIMES WHILE STATIONARY.
